Orders in quadratic fields. III (Q1340366)

The results in this paper continue the parts I and II with the same title [cf. ibid. 69, No. 3, 45-48 (1993; Zbl 0795.11056) and the author and \textit{L.-C. Zhang}, ibid., No. 9, 368-371 (1993; see the preceding review)]. Namely, the author first disproves a conjecture posed in part I concerning a criterion for the ideal class group of complex quadratic orders by showing some counter-examples. Secondly, he proves a necessary and sufficient condition for the ideal class group of complex quadratic orders to be generated by ambiguous ideals in terms of the factorization of the Rabinowitsch polynomial.
